Relationship with Media

One of my favorite songs is Younger by Harry Gardner. I love this song, because of how slow and how soothing it is. Also, one of the instruments in the background is the piano, which I have been growing up with. So, this song is really good at connecting to my life and others life, especially with lyrics like, "And now I look back and see how times have changed." It really gets me thinking of how life has changed, and how my outlook on life is way different than it was about five years ago, or even a year ago. The picture cover of the song and it really gives an idea of what the song is about, with the drawings and the stick figures.

harm to oneself

Image
These days and even a lot back then, girls and women harm themselves because they are not good enough for others. A lot of girls and women are down on themselves because they do not know who they really are, so they put a lot of pressure on themselves. Pressure can cause stress and self harm like cutting or the start to depression. It is mainly based on social media and how standards are set for women and girls. Standards specifically, and the fact that men are and will always be better than men.  So, women strive to be perfect and in the process they realize how hard it will be to be that perfect woman, so their solution is to hurt themselves. Today is more important because technology is advancing and we can't find who we really are. We are either our real selves or something that social media made out of us.

instagram ads

When you are on Instagram, scrolling through peoples posts, and liking pictures, do you ever click on an advertisement to buy something? There are a lot of advertisements on Instagram and some people just scroll right past them. They act as just a normal picture on your feed when you are scrolling through but if you stop on the picture it has an option to buy. Personally, I feel like not a lot of people actually use Instagram to buy clothing, shoes, makeup, etc. Instagram is more used for showing off those items. Buying things on Instagram is very different to me. You have to go to someones page, and click the link in their bio, and it will bring you to the website that you have to search for what you want. Also, it is easier not on Instagram, because on Instagram you can easily misslip your finger and slide down, loosing your place on what you were going to buy. Just by going to the website itself is easier and you can see more of what they have.

Instagram getting rid of the number of likes

Recently, different social media platforms have been informing people that instagram might get rid of the number of likes shown on a post. I think that it would not be a big of a deal for some people, but for others it will be an issue. For most people, they just want likes and comments, they do not actually want the satisfaction of just posting because they love their friends, etc. Personally, I have gotten a lot better about posting things more related to my personality and more dealt with my friends and my affection for them, also my family. I used to ask my friends if I should post a certain picture, but at this point I do not really mind, because whatever picture I post, it will be represting my personality. There was a competition that went wild, just having to do with likes. The world record egg. I think that it is so dumb that we care about likes so much. The amount of likes has nothing to do with who you are as a person, and I think getting rid of them will be amazing, especia
